I have my 18"x8.5" Vault Kaotic rims for sale! the tread is virtually new so i'd say atleast 95%, fronts are 225's and rears are 235's. The rims do not have a single scratch on them. they came off my R32 so they'd fit anything from r32 - r34 and s14 etc, anything with that 5 stud pattern.

They r located in Adelaide!

I will consider swap for R32 gts-t rims in perfect condition with cash adjustment of course

Price $1400

post up some pics of your rims!

not sure on the offset of the rims, they fill the guards nicely on my 32

how can i find out the offset?

take a wheel off, get a measuring tape, and measure the exact millimetres from the inner mounting surface (the small round plate where the wheel bolts to the car) to level with the back (inside) edge of the rim (not including the lip). This is called the "backspacing". Check out this pdf for info on this - a few pages into that document it shows you how to measure it.

http://www.cjtire.com/pdfs/Wheels.pdf

Then take the backspacing and punch it into this formula to calculate the offset:

BACKSPACING - [ OVERALL RIM WIDTH / 2 ] = offset

That pdf document shows the examples etc using inches - so just remember to convert to mm as we use here of course.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
